"We" is a personal pronoun like:
I
you
he
she
it
we
you
they
but "our" is a possesive pronoun and means that something belongs to someone, for example:
Mine
Yours
His
Her
Its
Our
Yours
Their
"Us" is a an object pronoun like:
Me
You
Him
Her
It
us
you
them
this ones follow a personal pronoun once a personal pronoun is been already used.
We can not say: I talked to He
the correct for is "I talked to him"

"Our" is possessive. Because the weekend plan was made by us, it is ours. Our is not the subject of the sentence, but plan is, and "our" talks about "plan." If you want to use "we," you must use it as a subject. The thing that does something in the sentence. You could say, "We plan to..."

"Our" is possessive. "We" just indicates a group of people. By saying "our weekend plan", you say that it is yours, not someone else's. "
